GROUP FIND PERFECT PITCH – PLAY ON
For only the
second time in the Drama Group’s 45 year history,
we took a stall at the Village Show in July. Two years
ago, at the stall, we recruited only one new member (but
a good ‘un). This year we managed another five! For a
group our size, that increases our strength by about
40%. And we reckon that with that sort of growth, in a
few years all the village will be members! We had a
great day, lots of people browsed our stall, looking at
the archive of photos, past programmes and newspaper
cuttings, as well as chatting to members of the group.
The day was made even better by the fact that our pitch,
at the Jubilee Garden, was right opposite Jim’s house
and so we had a constant supply of bacon butties and
mugs of tea.
Following that
success, we held two rehearsal workshops during the
summer to allow our new members to see how the group
works – again these were a great success. Lots of
people who came to our stall asked if there was a drama
group for youngsters in the village. Looks like there’s
a gap for a junior drama group – any takers?
So, what’s new
then?
Well, rehearsals for this NOVEMBER’S PRODUCTION
have started.
We are
performing “CAUGHT ON THE HOP” a COMEDY by
the late Derek Benfield.
The performance
dates are
25, 27 & 28 NOVEMBER
at the PWI Hall. More details
will appear in next month’s (and subsequent)
Newsletters. So, if you are interested in getting
involved or just want to find out more about us, just
collar any member of the Group or ring Sandra on
462430 or Alan on 464426
